Morale boosting win for the raiders but stats for JaM look awful. Media in us seem v quick to rubbish him.

Any #1 pick that does not produce will get a hard time of it.

He may be the most inaccurate quarterback in the league. Even little dump passes against the pass rush and he couldn't hit his man.
He was shocking in the first half of that game.

Bengals beat the Steelers! thats a bit of a surprise, maybe the Bengals are finally coming around. Falcons seemed to really struggle on both sides of the ball yesterday. Pats and Brady were far from their best but still moved the ball very easily. Michael Turner is nowhere near the form of last year, but we also seem to have limited our options in the running game, why havent they thrown Norwood in there to change things up a bit like last year.

A very shaky win for da Bears against a ramshackle Seahawks but a win is a win. Some crazy mistakes on both sides. Two missed fg's for Seattle a killer for them. 3 TD passes for Cutler. Running game still not there though. An awful pity the Vikings didn't get beaten. That was some TD pass by Favre at the end.

Capt Pat · September 28, 2009, 09:26:56 PM

That was a very sweet victory for us vikings fans. The Bears were also lucky to scrape home against a weakened Seattle team.

What is wrong with the Steelers, losing against the Bengals is not acceptable for super bowl chmpions?

Favre is ket, he will let them down in the playoffs, he is the most over-rated player in the history of the world. he almost threw a pick that my granny would have caught with a minute remaining, that would have been game over, instead he gets the attention he desperately needs, I cant stand the bastid.

I am no Packer fan but I hope they bate lumps out of the viqueens next week, you just cant like the vikings.

Stew,
that sounds very very bitter!!!
273 consecutive starts, and favres last gasp td pass?

Remember in 03 the night after his father died when he destroyed Oakland by himself?
Did you watch him tearing downfield to throw blocks on Sunday?

Over-rated? You must be kidding stew. The man is everything, has won everything, and still plays with his heart. He just has the smarts to get paid for it as he turns 40...

Minder · September 29, 2009, 11:04:34 AM

He has also thrown over 300 interceptions, and that cannot all be attributed to playing on shit teams.

Farve vs Green Bay Monday night should be fun.

thejuice · October 04, 2009, 06:29:14 PM

Flacco with a great TD there. dirty low hit on the receiver in the air though. might be a fine for it

Carmen Stateside · October 04, 2009, 06:42:13 PM

Watching Giants Cheifs, after great start by the Giants and Manning, they turned the ball over twice and got sloppy, Giants lead 7-3

neck injury to Ravens LT, didn't look that bad, but just goes to show how easy it can happen
